The future of public transport

Columbus

Columbus is a real-time personal travel assistant which provides public transport users with dynamic, up-to-the-minute information about their travel plans. Traditional journey planners rely on static route maps and timetables, and take no account of services being impacted by external factors like road works, congestion and weather conditions. Using powerful new mathematics and network analysis, Columbus bases its route planning on the real-time status of the network, presenting real-time updates as conditions change, and continually providing the user with the most efficient route to their destination.
